This week-long event, targeted at students aged 10-12 years old, features sessions from a range of professionals and organisations working within the ecological and environmental sectors.

LANSS will deliver a session on the Thursday afternoon titled "Who protects our landscape? – LANSS lessons from Cumbria". We will highlight careers involved in protecting Cumbria’s spectacular landscape!
